I think/hope I can finally say that I'm overcoming (knock wood!!) my problems with the Effner-air-dry-paints faceup method on porcelain!!! Poor little Darlene here had the most agonizing journey - I know I redid the faceup completely four times, maybe five. But at last I succeeded!!!

Darlene is Effner's "Little Darling #1" sculpt, 7" head size, on a Tenner body.Two more new friends are just waiting for the final eye details and they too will come to play!! I'm a happy camper! R.
